Angela Clayton, 19, spends her days lost in eras bygone, designing and sewing dresses that look straight out of a Jane Austen novel or a 16th-century portrait. She also models the creations on her Web sites (including AngelaClayton.Crevado.com).

The teen, who was home-schooled, is self-taught in design, pattern-making and sewing. Her YouTube tutorials have hundreds of thousands of views and earn her cash to pay for materials. Clayton has made more than 50 dresses, but saved only 30, discarding ones she doesn’t think are good enough.

She started three years ago after watching TV’s “The Borgias.” “I fell in love with the costumes and decided to re-create them,” she said.

Clayton, who lives with her parents, hopes to design costumes for movies and theater. Her dream job, however, is out of reach: “I would like to be a dressmaker to kings and queens in Renaissance times.”

Although Clayton never saw the 2015 movie, set at the end of the Victorian era, she was influenced by an exhibition of its costumes. “My dress is based on a pattern in a magazine from the 1890s,” she said of the look, which took about $70 and three weeks to complete. “Everyone hates watching historical shows [and movies] with me. I’ll say, ‘There’s a button [on that dress], but it should be an eyelet!’ ”

While Clayton counts Sandy Powell, the Oscar-winning costume designer behind the 2015 live-action “Cinderella” movie, as an influence, she modeled this gown — on which she worked a week and spent just $40 — on the animated classic. Though the teen wants to design such looks for film herself, Clayton said she has decided not to go to college because there isn’t a program she’s found that encapsulates all her interests. For now, she has a very important collaborator: Her dad is usually her photographer.

Clayton copied the painting by Raphael and Giulio Romano for this ensemble, which took around 35 hours to complete. It was her first attempt at millinery: “I do love the hats,” Clayton said. “They are always what I am happiest to wear.”
